I believe cnn viewership us under-reported in these polls. Cnn is the overwhelming network of choice for public places where people gather: airports, hotel lobbies, office building lobbies, etc. Are these viewers captured?

I think (hope) you are joking. Clearly, this viewership is NONvoluntary (so it shouldn’t count).

Are these viewers captured?

Captured viewers don't count.

Which is how I feel when waiting for a plane & being forced to watch CNN's sh*t.

I’m glad you pointed that out. The reason CNN is the “overwhelming” network of choice for public places is the intolerance of lefties and democrats. Do conservatives ever whine because CNN is on? No. Do lefties? You betcha. Lefties make so many complaints in a public viewing place that the owners or operators just go ahead and put on CNN or some sports channel.

You’re point highlights the left’s INTOLERANCE.

Are you for real? How in hell can you count as viewers people who are simply in the area of a TV tuned to a certain station? According to your way of thinking, I can turn my set to FOX, face it out the window on Madison Ave and count every single person who walks by as a viewer.

Lay off the sauce so early in the morning.

I stayed in two Holiday Inn Express hotels last summer that had Fox News on in the lobby. Not only that, but Fox News was also the default TV Station in the rooms. I thought that was pretty cool. As far as airports are concerned, the sound is usually muted or you can’t hear it. Also, I’ve noticed that very few people pay attention to CNN on the TV screens in airports.
